Deafening Silence (2012)

A nonlinear mix of poetry and politics is a living history of Burma in the guise of a travel diary as a way to describe life in a place where every reality is offlimits to both tourist and filmmaker A nation a society a people dying a slow death How do you get that on camera asks exileprotagonist Dr Zarni early on Documentary and experimental techniques combine in a hybrid collage as much about media as it is about human rights gradually putting the viewer at the center of a slippery vortex which begs the question is Burma a country or a metaphor
